KNIGHTS OF COLUMBUS
Chartered by the Knights of Columbus on February 13, 1898, Council 305 was the first council in the state of Michigan. At that time, it was assigned to the city of Detroit and covered all Catholic men who lived in the city.
In 1920 it had a peak membership of 10,000 members. In the 1930s, the Knights of Columbus allowed councils to be attached to specific parishes. This caused the membership of Council 305 to greatly diminish.
In 2009 the council was assigned to Old St. Mary's.
Meetings are held on the 1st Wednesday of each month at the parish hall starting at 7:00 pm.
